addpass [ parameter=value ... ]
Parameters are: pass_number, satellite, telemetry, start_date, start_time, num_lines, orbit_number.
addpass adds a record entry to the online pass catalog. This function is generally not a user function since it only adds the entry to the online catalog, and not the actual pass to the pass disk. However, it can be useful in debugging situations or if a record entry was accidentally deleted from the online catalog (i.e. rmpass) and the pass data has not yet been over written.
This is the number of the pass in the online pass catalog.
The valid range is [ >= 1 ].
The default is [ 1 ].
This is the satellite name. It must be entered in lower case.
There is no default.
This is the data telemetry type. It must be entered in lower case.
The default is [ hrpt ].
This is the start date of the data to add to the catalog.
Any valid date is allowed.
There is no default.
This is the start time of the data to add to the catalog.
Any valid time is allowed.
There is no default.
This is the number of lines (or data records) in the telemetry data.
The valid range is [ >= 1 ].
There is no default.
This is the satellite orbit revolution counter. Use 0 if the orbit number is unknown.
The valid range is [ >= 0 ]. The default is [ 0 ].
Add an entry into the online pass catalog and verify the add with lspass.

This function will allow entry of a pass number greater than any actually available, causing no end of trouble. This function does not allow for setting status flags or autoarchive parameters.
